Mani Round Up: June 20, 2017

This is my last mani round up until July 11th! I am headed on a couple trips out of town, so I won't be posting as usual. More details coming soon!

On Sunday night, I decided to take some time with my nails. I knew I was going to be busy Monday and Tuesday, so I wanted to do something fun, pretty, and worthwhile!

Wet & Wild A Blank Canvas: I started with two coats of A Blank Canvas. I switch between this and Salon Perfect Sugar Cube as my favorite mainstream white creme polishes. This is two coats and topcoat.

La Vite e Bella 1986 Vintage Water Nail Decals over Wet&Wild A Blank Canvas: I love toile anything!!!!! These decals are amazing quality and actually easy to use. Cut the design to fit the nail, dip in water until backing slides off, apply to nail and dab dry with a papertowel. Apply NON quick dry top coat so you don't smear the design, then apply your regular topcoat after that. Viola!

China Glaze Petal to the Metal: I forget when this polish arrived, but I am sorry I haven't used it more often. I wanted something neon without being neon. Totally makes sense in the polish world, right? This is two coats with topcoat. This is the exact color I wanted at the time, love when that happens.

Orly Prelude to a Kiss: Pretty sure this was on the blog last week...and probably next week, too. Legit LOVE for this polish. Two coats, topcoat, perfect. I honestly think this is the most flattering shade for my skintone. It's peachy and healthy and vibrant and work appropo - love.this.polish.

Orly Glowstick over Orly Prelude to a Kiss: Here I am again, wanting my nails to look different without doing anything - or much - to them. What to do? Slap on a neon that needs a base anyway! This is two coats of Glowstick over Prelude. I think the beige-peach in Prelude brings the POP in Glowstick down a notch, but I don't mind!

Zoya Byrdie: One coat, done. Zoya is the OG of one coat cremes. Byrdie is from the 2017 Summer Wanderlust collection, but it is such a berry wearable (haha) shade that I will grab for this year round.

It turned out to be a good week, with a mix of brights, neutrals, and nail art! Go me!
